The collision happened near the Valley Retail Park
A person has died and two others are injured following a serious crash in Croydon last night (July 5).
The collision took place on Beddington Farm Road, behind the Valley Retail Park, at around 10.45pm.
One person was declared dead at the scene, the London Ambulance Service (LAS) said in a statement this morning.
Their age and gender is yet to be made public.
Two other injured people were taken to hospital in unknown condition. The LAS said: “We sent resources to the scene including ambulance crews, paramedics in fast response cars, an advanced paramedic and an incident response officer.
“We also dispatched a trauma team in a car from London’s Air Ambulance. We treated three people.
“We took two patients to hospital but sadly, despite the best efforts of our crews, another patient was pronounced dead at the scene.”
Beddington Farm Road remained closed in both directions overnight between Purley Way and the junction for VUE Cinema, but has since reopened. Bus route 463 was rerouted away from the area throughout.
The Metropolitan Police has been contacted for more information.
